- 2). Now connect your jailbroken Iphone to the computer via the USB wire. Start putty. You will get a window similar to the one above. You need to enter the IP of the Iphone which you can find by going into settings on the iphone then the wifi, find your ip and hit enter. That should bring up a black box (terminal).

Once you have the black box putty terminal up, you need to access the Iphone. You can type SU (super user), however I have had the easiest time with typing "root". This will bring up the password portion. The password is "alpine", you will note the cursor will not move while entering the password that's ok, just type alpine and hit enter. This should bring up a prompt that will list your Iphone and boom you are in!
